ARMED AND READY.

The modern German Empire has been
formed by the bayonets of million OF men.
On these bayonets II has been sustained.
fhe militaryism which led all Europe TO
arm in self defense is now alarmed at its
work. Bismarck and Moltke, the authors
of the policy of converting a nation into
vast camp, are in turn frightened because at
least one other nation has outstripped them
at their own game. France is said to be
EARNED to the teeth" 1t has expended dur
ing the last sixteen years 0O0000,000 for
war purposes. 1t is actuated by burning
desire for revenge, and Germany is the OBJ
-ject of it, That ii will strike when it deems
the opportunity favorable is no longer doubt
ed. To prepare for this attack, which as now
seen is to come sooner than was expected,
the government Of Germany is engaged in
an effort to persuade the Richstag to vote a
vastly increased army budget and to extend
the time for its operation from three years to
seven. This measure, we see, II has been
defeated, and we may naturally anticipate
some new and startling proposition in Its
place.
Though nominally in the interest of peace,
these tremendous ornaments tend In but one
direction They mean war ultimately, and
war Of the most dreadful description. The
fiction that "the army is peace" So long
maintained in Germany, is still adhered to,
but in the increasing burdens imposed upon
the people for the purpose Of keeping pace
with the war preparations elsewhere, and
in the certainty that such a policy can re-
suit in but one thing, is to be seen prsof Of
the lalseness Of the theory which has thus
far governed United Germany. AS war be-
comes more and more certain as result OF
its own militaryism, the familiar ann 'unce-
ment that Increasing ornaments are for
peace must have hollow sound in the ears
of the German people. The policy is their
own. They have taken the sword, aud have
for time succeeded in making it supreme
in Europe. lin the storm that is gather
ing and is soon TO break they should fall
by the sword their late would not be an
uncommon one.

UNFORTUNATE SCANDALS.


The number of scandals involving minis.
tiers of the gospel, particularly in the East,
is such at this time as 10 recall that season a
few years ago when il appeared as though
every county had one such case. In many
OF the principal cities, If not all, of the East
ern and Middle States at least one suit at
law is in progress in which ministers are
interested. II IL is not the preacher who is
at fault il is his wife, but il has happened
generally that both have been shown up in
a most unenyiable light.
A curious feature of these domestic quar-
rels is that the members Of the churches
oyer which the clergymen are placed seem
Ia devide about equally in support Of the
contsnding parties and it thus happens that
whilst the leud lasts, and frequently for a
long period after some decision has been ar.
rived at in the courts, the time of the con-
gregations is taken up with scandal TO the
exclusion of everything else. When reli-
gioUs body becomes thus embroiled it can
be imagined that its influence for good is Ut
an end Societies organized 10 inculcate
morality and religion cannot be very eff.
Gent when the chief controversy is with
each other over question Of immortality on
the part Of their leaders. Unfortunately, in
most Of the scandals now pending the
guilt Of the parties is not doubted. The
spectacle of large body Of people publicly
protesting devotion to purity and virtue
using all the enginery Of religion In defense
Of such characters cannot, therefore, be a
very profitable one to anybody, and much
less TO those whose hope is TO regenerate the
world.
The marvellous thing about these occur.
rences is not that an occasional minister
falls from grace, but that when his fall has
been established SO many people of sup
posedly healthy minds and morals can be
found TO insist upon his innocence and 70
persist In treating him as leader entirely
worthy Of all respect. That the minister is
only human has been well established, but
there are many who will be unwilling to
admit that the Tune has come when the
standards aimed at in their profession are
TO be lowered to the level OF those obtaining
in other waIksof life. Ifthere is not enough
decency left in the clergyman who involves
himself, his family and his church in vulgar
scandal 10 induce him TO withdraw from his
charge, then there ought To be enough dc.
cency on the part Of his parishieners TO make
that course imperative. Guilty or innocent,
q preacher figuring in divorce court ought
not at the same time TO figure In the pulpit.
Soma excellent men may occasionally be
wrenged by the enforcement Of a rule Of this
kind, but some Of the damage done 10 the
race will be incomparably smaller than Is
now the case

We have an abiding faith in the wisdom
